Missing in Action

I have sorely neglected my blog of late.. for good reasons, and some that I am really only becoming to come to terms with.
My health at this time is not good. Although I feel well within myself, I have a couple of things that I have had for many years that have not really given me any cause for concern.
However, it looks as though that is set to change this year. My protein levels in my regular blood tests were showing abnormalities, and on further investigation, which involved a week in hospital in Birmingham, a couple of major problems have surfaced. To cut a long story short, I have to have surgery, for one or the other, maybe even both.. By far the most frustrating part is the waiting and hanging on while the Specialists make their minds up which is most serious and which to do first.
In the meantime, we are to wait, and can't plan anything, or go anywhere long term in case we are called back for an appointment..
So.. watch this space, I will be writing down as much as I can, as it should help me with getting through this, to vent my frustrations and just even seeing it in print helps.

  1. Very best wishes, Amanda - I have had two lots of surgeries this year, so I partly understand the frustration of the wait, and the worry about the outcome ... still hope the wait is worth it, and your health is fully restored in the end.
